Biomimetics, or biological mimicry, is essentially when scientists utilize design features in creation to overcome engineering difficulties. We discuss some of these, such as mimicking bacterial swarms and ear-inspired tech. We talk about well as what these examples demonstrate.

UTR#15

Here are some things we discuss with Dr. Nelson:
-Why should Christians care about and study biology?
-Why should Christians become familiar with evolution?
-What are significant critiques of evolution as a plausible model?
-What would constitute evidence for common descent?

HISTORY OF SCIENCE ROCKIN’ ON YOUR RADIOOO!

The pop culture consensus is generally unaware of the history of modern science and its Christian origins. To make matters worse, many internet atheists engage in historical revisionism when engaging this issue. For example, see the hard secular polemics of Richard Carrier, who is following in the footsteps of his outdated, outmoded and outlandish forebears, John William Draper and Andrew Dickson.

Dr. Jonathan Sarfati (Creation Ministries International) was on Backpack Radio (link) to discuss the Christian roots related to the rise of modern science. I was on an episode of Apologia Radio to discuss the same thing and respond to somecriticism of the claim. Apologia’s website says the show, “will hopefully cause praise to flow from your lips to God Who is the very foundation of any pursuit of scientific discovery.” My sentiments exactly. On this post, I share some thoughts on the history and development of modern science.
